Just wondering from Indiana BTDT foster parents.......After termination trial ended, how long did you wait for the judges decision? Was it taken "under advisement"? I understand they are suppose to make a decision within 90 days........but I dont want to bank on that if it is not what usually happens.
Our trial ended in Feb. We are within days of the "90Days" and have heard nothing. Im getting nervous. Not so much about the decision, but that this will just keep dragging on.
Just wanted to hear from others about their wait time.
Thank You

Have you checked with your CW,has SHE checked the computer for the Judge's Ruling? It took another 3 weeks to get the Ruling in the mail.
Sorry to hear about your Mother, that's rough. It's great she got to know him before she passed, what special memories. Hang on, it will come. We are still waiting for paperwork to go to probate for his adoption, 4 months later,then will be waiting for a court date - so the waiting just continues!

ice kitty- i will be praying about your upcoming tpr trial. May the judge put your little ones best interest first. I didnt have to testify in our trial but I imagine you may feel a little nervous about it (I would). Hold strong and you'll do fine. Best wishes.
Thank you everyone for the well wishes. I havent heard the word "appeal" yet and were at day 12 out of 30. :dance:
I've had to testify in both my boys TPR trials.. The second one was harder for me for some reason.. I was just more nervous.. Ironically that was the one that we lost- so BM & I had to continue to talk after I testified against her.. It was akward to say the least. Thankfully she didn't hold a grudge bc she knew I was just telling the truth..

lakin- thanks for all the great advice....i know i will need it. i have a phone meeting with the dcs atty coming up soon, so i might give you a ring after i speak to them, since you so generously offered, lol. :flower:
ugh. i just hope its over quickly, but something tells me it won't be.
thanks again!
just to update everyone.....mom signed consents on june 4th, literally RIGHT before i went into the court room, so NO ONE had to testify!!!!
not that it was very pretty or nice. she said not a word to me and when we got outside the case manager attempted to talk to her and she started cursing everyone out.....just.....not pretty, man. *sighs*
but.....you should have seen the look on that kid's face when i told him this was his forever home. i just never knew at such a young age those words made a difference....but its been a week and he is still on cloud nine. he has even started taking care of a stuff rat he calls his baby and has named him baby rex, which, for a kid with rad....pretty darn big deal.:banana:
it's like the weight of the world has been removed from his shoulders. shoulders too tiny to carry all that around anyway.
almost 2 years he has been with me....this is a long time coming.:love:
